   Wonderful atmosphere! Great service. Coconut shrimp and lobster shrimp taquitos were standard. Drinks are excellent. Unfortunately our beef tenderloin medallions were over cooked. Biggest let down was we received on the beach and at sunset about 35 people crammed in front of the five tables in a row on the beach to take photos and he had a stand up to actually watch the sunset. Definitely a tourist trap. Food could’ve been a little bit more creative but was decent.

   We normally love this restaurant not only for the food but the beach club. Well things have changed. First the hostess was rude and unwelcoming. Second, we stayed all day at the beach club and things there weren't the same. Service was spotty and had to ask for drinks and bottled water constantly. Some of the long-time waiters are gone too. Many guests said the same thing that we did and recommended El Dorado next door. I guess we will try that place next time. Too bad, we always looked forward to our meals and the Beach Club at La Palapa but not anymore.

    We got this recommendation from an Uber driver who had lived in Puerto Vallarta is entire life. She said it was a very good restaurant and he was right. Great Ambiance very friendly staff and the food was excellent. You have a lovely view of all the boats parked by the pier in a perfect spot to watch sunset

    Can’t beat the atmosphere /setting and great service. Food temperature can be better. It has been our experience over the years food arrives warm, never as hot as it should be. Also lacking is a bit of seasoning with some of the dishes .

    I live in Bucerias and this was my first time dining at La Palapa. The food was truly outstanding and the service was excellent. The live music was lovely -- professional, tasteful and played at the perfect volume. Since we were seated on the beach, I was surprised to be advised that I could not smoke at our table. However, the waiter was very polite when he told me, and directed me to the area where smoking is permitted. My only possible negative comment would be that the Margaritas are quite small and both food and drinks are somewhat expensive. Vivo en Bucerias y esta fue la primera vez que cena en La Palapa. La comida era verdaderamente excepcional y el servicio era excelente. La música en vivo era encantadora, profesional, de buen gusto y jugaba al volumen perfecto. Como estábamos sentados en la playa, me sorprendió que me informaran que no podía fumar en nuestra mesa. Sin embargo, el mesero fue muy educado cuando me dijo y me dirigió al área donde se permite fumar. Mi único comentario negativo posible sería que las margaritas son bastante pequeñas y tanto la comida como las bebidas son algo caras.

    This outstanding restaurant is right on the beach in Zona Romantica, perfect for sunset dinners. It's a bit dressy, so nice for a date or the special night out. The service was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was outstanding and the wine list has interesting options from France, California and Mexico. Don't discount Mexican wines. In keeping with Mexican custom, they don't bring the bill until you ask for it, so you can basically enjoy the table all night. Did I mention price? Probably half what you'd pay in San Francisco for a comparable meal.

    Pushy getting me to order fast to turn over table. Food came out before drink or appetizer. Night before I went to El Dorado, nextdoor, and honestly the service was night and day. So much nicer and attentive at El Dorado. This was my last meal in Puerto Vallarta, and other than sunset, I was so disappointed.
